Свет неба: ванильный `lightmap` × подкраска цветом неба (зенит сверху, горизонт сбоку; яркость 1) × форма по нормали (вверх 1.1, вниз 0.66), только там, где есть небесный свет.

+## Вода (патч 19): что знать преемнику
+
+- Тайминги проходов: `hd water` (геометрия воды; на Metal его метка часто 0 — работа учитывается в соседних проходах) и `hd water composite`.
+  Замеры 2560×1440, Hills, река на ~40% экрана, M5 (шумно: у меня GPU делят браузеры): композит 0.8–2 мс, `hd lighting` на 2–3 мс
+  выше, чем без воды (теперь освещается дно под водой — раньше эти пиксели были ванильными); всего вода ≈ +3 мс при большой воде
+  на экране, около 0.5–1 мс при малой. Цель «≤ 2 мс» при полной реке не достигнута. Идеи: отражения в полразрешения (с учётом маски воды
+  на границе), SSR только при F>0.04 уже есть, ужать освещение дна (без точечных источников на глубине > N блоков).
+- Вода находится по слоям спрайтов. LOD-тайлы воды (`lod/mesh.rs`) идут тем же путём, если их слой — water_still; вода из resource pack с
+  другим именем спрайта не распознается (останется ванильной). `water_overlay` (боковые грани у стекла) не трогаем.
+- Стекло/частицы/лёд перед водой: проверка `d - wd` возвращает ванильный вид пикселя (вода под стеклом без эффекта).
+- Известные ограничения: отражается только то, что есть на экране (и только непрозрачное: листва — да, вода/стекло — нет); дождь на воде,
+  пена у берега, подводная каустика не сделаны; ночью вода слегка ярче неба (нужно привязать к модели неба — п. 4 плана «Небо»); отражение
+  солнечного диска — только блик GGX (без диска в SSR). Проверка мерцания на реке: разница двух скриншотов ≈1.6% пикселей >20/255 (норма ~2%).
+
+## Небо и свет (патч 22): что знать преемнику
+
+- Тайминги (M5, 2560×1440, Hills, река в кадре): `hd sky` ≈ 2.4–4.7 мс по таймстемпам, но кадр не вырос (GPU avg 18.4 мс против 18.1) — на Metal метка крошечного прохода ловит ожидание соседних; с кэшем по высоте солнца в покое проход не выполняется. Освещение 4.0–5.1 мс (PCSS-lite и небо почти не добавили), композит воды 0.6–2.4, TAA 2.6–2.9.
+- Яркость: небо — физическая радиация → сжатие по максимальному каналу (`SKY_EXPOSURE` 0.85) → гамма 1/1.9 → насыщенность 1.2 (+0.45 у низкого солнца). Весь конвейер в гамма-пространстве, поэтому цвета неба и подкраски света — «показанные» значения; подкраска света неба имеет яркость 1 и не меняет экспозицию (яркость задаёт ванильный лайтмап × `ambient.x` = 0.62 днём, 0.95 ночью).
+- Цвет солнца (`light_of`): пропускание атмосферы вдоль солнца (`hd_sky::sun_transmittance`), нормировано на 1, степень 0.6, × (1, 0.97, 0.88). Луна — холодная, как раньше.
+- Дождь: `sky_extra.z` смешивает небо/дымку с ванильным градиентом (серым от ванили); Нижний мир/Энд/подводное — `sky_sun.w = 0`, всё как раньше (ванильное небо и туман).
+- Облака — по-прежнему ванильные блоки; объёмные облака — п. 4 плана. Окраска облаков цветом закатного солнца — эвристика по маске (глубина есть, G-буфера нет, высота и дальность), может задеть далёкие частицы.
+- Идеи дальше: многократное рассеяние по Hillaire вместо плоского члена, тени облаков, диск луны с фазой, звёзды/галактика по Photon (`sky.glsl`), розовый оттенок заката (`get_sun_tint` у Photon).
+
 ## Правила

+- Код Photon (MIT) переносить можно только с атрибуцией (см. «Что это»); код других шейдерпаков — нельзя.
 - Ничего не ломать в `off`/`on`; HD выключен — код HD не работает вовсе (`hd = None`).
 - Без потери качества ради скорости без договорённости (шаги, разрешение, число эффектов).
 - Каждый новый WGSL — в naga-тест. Каждый новый проход — в тайминги (`PassTiming`).

+# Third-party code: Photon
+
+Parts of the HD renderer's atmosphere (`hd_sky.rs`) are ported from, or follow closely, the
+Photon shader pack by sixthsurge, `shaders/include/sky/atmosphere.glsl` (and the idea of the water
+waves in `shaders/include/misc/water_normal.glsl`) at commit
+26c2906ee02cc484359b835fba6993d443d45966, https://github.com/sixthsurge/photon
+
+What is taken: the air's scattering and absorption coefficients (Rayleigh, Mie, ozone), the scale
+heights, the ozone density profile, the Mie albedo and Henyey-Greenstein anisotropy, the sunlight
+colour outside the atmosphere, and the Chapman-function approximation of the sun's transmittance.
+The sky-view texture, its march, the sun's colour and everything else are our own.
